Ranji Trophy, Round 2, Day 1 Highlights: Shubman Gill's return for Punjab didn't go according to plan as he lasted just five balls in the first innings against Chhattisgarh, scoring just one run.

On the other hand, Mumbai dominated the proceedings against Himachal, ending the day at 107/2 after bundling the opposition out for 140....Read More
Mohammed Shami was unavailable for Bengal for the tie against Services; however, no official reason was given for his absence. The second round of the 2026-27 Ranji Trophy season got underway on Sunday. As many as 19 matches got underway on Sunday, with Meghalaya-Manipur and Nagaland-Mizoram beginning the day’s proceedings. Both matches started at 8:30 am. The Assam-Tripura contest started at 8:45 am. The rest of the games started at 9:30 am.
Vihaan and Harnoor look good
Punjab 12/0 after five overs. The pitch looks fairly conducive to batting. The hosts need to make sure that they play carefully and don't lose any wickets in the first hour. There is some early morning juice in the pitch. Once the sun is fully out and the moisture is gone, it's going to be a belter.
Other toss updates
Vidarbha field against defending champions Jammu and Kashmir. Odisha field against Kerala. Hyderabad bat against Andhra. Mumbai field against Himachal Pradesh. Uttar Pradesh bat against Goa. Pondicherry bat against Madhya Pradesh. Rajasthan bat against Railways. Delhi bat against Gujarat. Maharashtra bowl against Jharkhand. Haryana field against Chandigarh.
Punjab win the toss
And bat first! Punjab boast quite a squad. Shubman Gill, Prabhsimran Singh, Umesh Yadav and Gurnoor Brar. For Chhattisgarh, there are quite a few changes. The most notable is that their captain Anju Tiwari is not playing on account of a niggle. Sandeep Warrier is stepping into the breach.
Big match coming up
Between Punjab and Chhattisgarh. The pitch at New Chandigarh has a tinge of grass but as per the experts, it's a bat-first pitch. All eyes on Shubman Gill who is playing his first match of the season today. It could very well be his last of the season. Prabhsimran Singh is also playing for Punjab.
Mizoram lose first wicket
In the 8th over. Sahil Reza departs for 4 off 22 balls. He has been bowled by Saurav. Mizoram 13/1 in 7.1 overs. By the way, here is the Mizoram Playing XI: Chhuankima, Dinpuia, Eric, Fela, Henry, Johan, Lawma, Mapuia (C, Wk), Peka, Remtluanga, Stephen.
Assam Playing XI
Anurag Talukdar, Denish Das (C), Hridip Deka, Mohit Thakur, Mukhtar Hussain, Nibir Deka, Rishav Das, Roshan Alam, S C Ghadigaonkar (Wk), Sarupam Purkayastha, Sibsankar Roy
Tripura Playing XI
A A Sinha, A K Sarkar, A S Sarkar, Amit Ali, Bikram Kumar Das, Hrituraj Ghosh Roy, M B Mura Singh (C), Mandeep Singh, Sandip Sarkar, Sentu Sarkar (Wk), Sridam Paul
Meghalaya Playing XI
Abhishek, Ajay Duhan, Arpit Subhas (Wk), Aryan, Jaskirat, Kevin Christopher, Kishan Lyndoh (C), Rahul Dalal, Ram, Santhosh, Swastic
Manipur Playing XI
Ajay Singh, AL Bashid (Wk), Bishworjit, Johnson, Jotin Pheiroijam, Karnajit Y, Kishan Singha, Langlonyamba M (C), Priyojit K, Rex, Ronald M
Manipur, Nagaland fielding first
Against Meghalaya in the plate group! The match is being played at the Meghalaya Cricket Association ground in Shillong. Nagaland win the toss and decided to field too against Mizoram. No rocket science there. Both teams are trying to take advantage of the early moisture in the pitch. Guess what, Tripura do the same against Assam!
Action in the north-east
Meghalaya-Manipur and Nagaland-Mizoram ties to begin the day’s proceedings. Both ties start at 8:30 am. The Assam-Tripura contest starts at 8:45 am. The rest of the games will start at 9:30 am.
